Cosmic Conversations We Have With Ourselves: Embracing Positive Inner Dialogue
Getting around the metaphysical maze of the unconscious mind
We're not just the main character in our material realities, but also the narrator. The way we talk to ourselves sets the stage for our personal reality programming, where every thought becomes a script for the unconscious mind.
When you picture the unconscious as a celestial sponge, it soaks up affirmations like cosmic cocktails. The catch? It's not at all picky about what's on the menu. Negative thoughts slip down just as easily as the positive ones. Before we know it, the sponge is soaked with a bitter concoction of self-doubt and pessimism.
This cosmic sponge couldn’t care less – it's an equal opportunity absorber. Feed it tales of defeat and it'll gulp them down like a parched traveler in a metaphysical desert. A daily dose of paranoia? It'll take that too. Treated badly, it’s a black hole for negativity – always hungry and never satisfied.
What's a traveller to do?
Well, we could try swapping the script. Imagine talking to a dear friend and offering them the same disparaging commentary we give ourselves. Ridiculous, no? What self-respecting celestial being would ever do that? So, why do we do it to ourselves?
Time for a rewrite.
The next time we catch ourselves mentally berating our existence or bemoaning our fate, let's hit the pause button on the existential soap opera. Instead, conjure up a mental image of our favourite guru – be it a divine being, a literary genius or even just the incredibly chill barman at your local pub – and ask, "What would they say?"
Chances are, their words would be filled with compassion, understanding and maybe even a cracking one liner. So, take a cue from these imaginary spiritual guides and inject kindness into your internal dialogue. The universe may not come with a user manual, but surely it appreciates a passenger who treats themselves with a bit of grace.
Reframing your thoughts, your words and you can shape your cosmic destiny. It's time to ditch the negative affirmations and watch as our unconscious mind turns our lives into the greatest, most entertaining existential soap opera in the universe.
